Function: suggestTickTypeForRange()

suggestTickTypeForRange(low, high, options): TickType | null

Pick the tick width that represents a price range [low, high].

Widest-first (coarsest ticks / lowest precision first): the widest width whose bin at the range's geometric mid fits into the range at least minBins (and no more than maxBins) times is returned. Because it defaults to minBins: 1, an existing pool's [min, max] maps to a single bin at its native (widest fitting) width — so pre-filling an "add liquidity" form with it keeps the exact range and adds to that same pool instead of splitting it into finer, brand-new pools. Users can still slide into neighbouring bins from there. Returns null for a degenerate range (high <= low, a wall / single-price position) or when no width fits.

Example​

suggestTickTypeForRange(1000, 2000); // 'wide'   (exactly one wide bin)
suggestTickTypeForRange(0.9, 1.0);   // 'normal' (two normal bins of 0.05)
suggestTickTypeForRange(1, 1);       // null     (wall / single price)
